The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Chapter 143 Fear of sin and commit suicide
Seeing Jia Mu's few words and few words, she collected more than 1 taels of funeral expenses for Jia Amnesty. Jia Lian also had to admit that Jia Mu's family management philosophy of trying to unite the family is also reasonable.

At this time, even he could clearly feel the warmth radiated from a big united family.

In fact, it is precisely because of the existence of Jia Mu that the World of Red Mansions can compose so many scenes of spring fragrance, wine, bustling and lively.

It was Jia's mother who sat at the highest place in Jia's mansion. With her high moral character and good taste, all the family members, relatives and friends inside and outside the Jia family could be gathered together for the reunion of all the golden hairpins, setting up a poetry club, etc. Great events provide the fundamental soil.

It can be imagined that without Jiamu, the first and second rooms of Rongguo Mansion would have fallen apart long ago.The Jia Mansion is just like an ordinary wealthy family.

The simplest appearance is that without Jia Mu, Xue Baochai, Lin Daiyu, and later sisters Xue Baoqin, Li Wen and Li Qi, these golden hairpins would not gather in the Grand View Garden.

The only fault of Jia's mother is that she is used to enjoying the wealth and honor, so she can't step down from power, but she can't train her children and grandchildren who can manage the family business.As a result, Jia's mansion could only watch it turn from prosperity to decline under her nose...

After solving the money problem, the rest of the work will be easy. There are so many people in Jia's house, it's just a matter of going through the funeral process step by step.

Mother Jia and the others also gave some instructions and prepared to leave.

There was a sudden commotion outside, and after careful questioning, it turned out that Taoist Yuandan heard that Jia She was dead, and was afraid that the Jia family would pursue his crimes, so he had already hit the wall and died.

Mother Jia and the others were slightly taken aback when they heard this, but they forgot that there was such a culprit in Jia She's death!
Jia Lian was even more angry and said, "Okay, this thief killed my father, but I couldn't kill him myself. It's really hard to get rid of my hatred!!"

When everyone heard his murderous words, their hearts were a little chilled.

The back of Mrs. Xing's neck was so cold, how dare she let Jia Lian know that in fact, they often secretly feed Jia Sheyuan the elixir refined by Daoist Jia Sheyuan behind Jia Lian's back...

Jia Mu sighed: "Forget it, this is your father's own fate, and it is useless to blame others at this time.

Moreover, he has committed suicide in fear of crime, and all crimes have been offset.

Your father is gone, and you should concentrate on praying for him.It is not worthwhile to be angry with such a contemptible person.

Death is a big deal, so don't make things difficult for him anymore.Wrap his body up, drag it out of the city to burn it and bury it early tomorrow morning, it can be regarded as accumulating virtue for your father. "

Having just received benefits from Jia's mother, Jia Lian naturally would not disobey Jia's mother's wishes, so he obeyed.

So Jia Mu and others didn't intend to stay for a long time, and those who dragged a large number of people went as they came.

At least until Jia Amnesty's mourning hall is set up, Mrs. Wang, Li Wan and others need to come to watch the mourning, so most people don't need to stay tonight.

Jia Zhen also said to Jia Lian: "Brother Lian, if you need my brother's help in regards to the grand master's funeral, just ask and don't be polite to me. As a brother, I will definitely support you with all my strength."

Jia Lian also quickly thanked him.

Then Jia Zhen ordered Youshi to stay and take care of it for a while, and said to Jia Rong: "You stay too, and help take care of some outside affairs. If you dare to slack off and hide, go back carefully and I will break your leg."

Jia Rong took a step back, then nodded with a stern face.

Jia Zhen snorted and glanced at Qin Shi, as if she wanted to say that it was useless for her to stay here, she might as well go back with him.However, Qin Shi followed You Shi step by step, and did not dare to show any flaws under the eyes of everyone. It reminded people of the rumors last year that were finally dispelled. Therefore, he finally bowed to Mrs. Xing, and then leave.

Jia Lian personally sent Jia Zhen and Jia Rong out of Yimen. Seeing that Jia Rong had vowed to stay and help, he did not refuse. He asked the housekeeper to arrange a place for him, and then personally sent Jia Zhen out of the gate of Dongkuayuan.

When they came back, Sister Feng and You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were no longer in Jia She's house, and they must have gone to discuss things like setting up the mourning hall.

Only Mrs. Xing and Yingchun are still serving Jia She.

Of course, there is also a little Jia Cong who has been hiding in the house.

"Lian'er, should we bury the Eldest Master now?"

Mrs. Xing had been crying for Jia She for a long time, and just now she lost her face outside, which made her look even weaker and weaker.

Jia Lian said to her: "Madam's complexion is not good, let's go back to the room and rest for a while, we will arrange the affairs of the elder. If there is anything you don't understand, please ask your wife for instructions."

Mrs. Xing's expression turned embarrassing.Normally, she would think that Jia Lian didn't respect her, or wanted to take her power and disagreed.

But at this time, I didn't have the heart to think about it.Just now, in front of everyone, Jia's mother clearly stated that she was very dissatisfied with her ability to manage the family, and even ignored her face, bypassing her, bluntly speaking about Jia Amnesty's funeral, and letting Jia Lian and his wife take care of it...

Can she blame Mother Jia for being unfair?

cannot.Without Jia Amnesty, Mother Jia didn't even bother to care for her last bit of decency.

Jia Lian and his wife are not easy to get along with. If she contradicts them at this time, I'm afraid she really won't be able to be a big wife.

This is when Madam Xing slapped Jia Cong when she knew that Jia Cong was suing in front of Jia Amnesty.

She was afraid that Jia Lian would think that she instigated it...

Seeing Yang's death with her own eyes made her have no intention of suppressing Jia Lian by relying on the power of her aunt.

So, after a few polite words, she really led her maid and went back to the house.

Jia Lian bowed to see her off, with no sign of disdain in his eyes.

Mrs. Xing's shallow eyelids and cowardice all stem from her background and serving such a vulgar person as Jia She.

She has no confidence at all.

For example, Mrs. Wang dared to agree lightly and offered three thousand silver to subsidize Jia Amnesty's funeral.

Does Mrs. Xing dare?

She didn't dare, she didn't have that foundation.

It's not that she has been a first-rank imperial order for more than ten years, and she can't even get 3000 taels of silver, but that she needs to spend much more time and energy than Mrs. Wang... …

But it's good that Mrs. Xing can be so knowledgeable, and he can save himself trouble.

He ordered people to carry Jia Amnesty's body into the coffin that had been prepared earlier and seal it.Because the mourning hall has not been built yet, it can only be temporarily placed in the house.

At this time, a large group of women rushed over again, crying...

There is a bit of sincerity in this cry, so there is really no need to ask.

Seeing that there were no powerful people in the room to obstruct the eyes, those women crowded around Jia Lian one by one, showing great hospitality.Even an honest girl like Yingchun could see that these shameless women were trying to seduce her brother, her face turned red and she couldn't bear to watch.

Jia Lian was too lazy to listen to their howling, but at this moment, it was really time for these girls to cry out, so he pulled Yingchun out of the room to breathe.

Yingchun is the eldest among the three spring sisters, plus the Daiyu Xiangyun sisters, and the only girl who has really begun to show her youth.

Her skin is slightly plump and her figure fits well.A small, but already oval-shaped face, with a delicate nose, and rosy cheeks like fresh lychees.

Her eyes are as clear as water, gentle and silent, and her crescent eyebrows are as soft as willows, making her look amiable.

My big sister is definitely the most typical and beautiful lady in this era.

Beautiful, weak, and docile.

Seeing that there were still tears on her little face, Jia Lian couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

Out of all the people who were crying in front of Jia She just now, perhaps only Yingchun was the one with some sincerity.

Although Jia She didn't take much care of Yingchun, Jia She was her biological father after all.Without Jia Amnesty, from today onwards, Yingchun has become a girl who has lost both her father and mother.

Such a woman is called helpless in this era.Just like Lin Daiyu after Lin Ruhai died.

"Second brother..."

Yingchun didn't know why Jia Lian was looking at her. Seeing Jia Lian's eyes, Yingchun blushed a little. After calling softly, she turned sideways.

Jia Lian smiled inwardly, she really grew up and was so shy.

So he softly comforted: "Ying'er, don't worry, even though your father is gone, you still have me. From now on, I will protect you and never let others bully you."

Upon hearing Jia Amnesty, Yingchun really wanted to cry again.

She looked up at Jia Lian, and saw that Jia Lian's handsome face was full of sincerity and caring. Hearing him call herself "Ying'er", she felt kind, touched, and shy, so she wanted to say He couldn't answer anything, and finally could only give a soft "hmm".

Jia Lian said: "Because of my father's affairs, you may have to work hard with us, Ying'er, for a while.

Later, I will ask your sister-in-law to arrange a room for you here. I will let the girls go back tomorrow and bring all the things you usually use. You can live here in the future. It is so convenient and saves you from going back and forth Ran. "

Yingchun nodded, "I always follow the arrangements of my brother and sister-in-law."

Unknowingly, Yingchun removed the word "brother".

It just so happened that Wang Xifeng personally led a few maids, came over with tung oil cans, 24 plates, and wicks, and was about to light it in the room where Jia Amnesty's coffin was placed.

Hearing Jia Lian asking her to arrange a good room for Yingchun, Sister Feng said with a smile: "It's not like you don't know the situation here. All the good yards and rooms are taken up by the concubines and maids of the old man. From now on we If we drive them away from time to time, we will offend them for no reason. Why don't we take the car back there to sleep after we finish our work, and then take Ying girl and the others back by the way."

Sister Feng has high requirements for the quality of life, she still wants to go back to live in her warm and luxurious house, and doesn't want to settle down here.

Besides, if she lived here seriously for more than a month, she would not be able to meddle in the affairs of the Rongguo Mansion compound at all...

Although Jia's mother said that she was devastated, but as confident as she was, she still felt that she could grasp with both hands, and both hands were firm.

"You still want to go back to sleep? It's just the three of us tonight. If we don't take turns keeping vigil, do you think it's appropriate?"

In this world, even Jia She, Jia Zhen and others are superficially filial piety, which is the foundation of human beings.

Therefore, no matter whether you are sincerely filial or not, what you do for others to see must be impeccable.

Naturally, it's not that Sister Feng doesn't understand this truth, but on the one hand, she despises this matter, and on the other hand, she thinks that today is the first night, and no one will pick this thorn.Isn't there still so many "little wives" guarding here...

But seeing Jia Lian's insistence, he could only nod his head and ask Jia Lian where he planned to live.

Although Jia She's main house is empty, she definitely doesn't want to live in it. Who knows what the old man did in it...

"Let's live in the courtyard where I used to live. In addition to the girl's room, there is also Grandma You and the others. They kindly came to help us manage the board, and they must not be neglected. Even though they don't live here, they have to arrange a place to stay."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, I'll go down and arrange it right away?"

Sister Feng answered Jia Lian's words with a smile.

Now that he has decided to live here, the site is definitely not a problem.Without Jia Amnesty, those coquettish foxes would just let her rub their hands and make room for them. It's really easy.

Jia Lian then stopped talking.He found that Wang Xifeng, a woman, only needs to give her a limit on the general direction, how to do it, that is, her ability to execute, she is better than ten thousand people, this point, even Jia Lian himself can't help it.

……

Jia Cong has been silently staying in Jia Amnesty's room, kneeling numbly beside Jia Amnesty's coffin.

No one pays attention to him.

No matter those concubines in red and willow green, girls and women, they all walked around when they saw him, and occasionally there was a look of contempt in their eyes.

Jia Cong was a little puzzled, he clearly never offended these people.

Before, even after his aunt died, none of these people treated him with such disgust.

He is only seven or eight years old, and he doesn't quite understand the dangers of the world, so he naturally doesn't understand that in the eyes of these people, the former Third Master Cong has now completely become synonymous with broom stars.

His own aunt had done dirty, vicious and stupid things and had already been executed.

Second Master Lian didn't deal with him because he was concerned about his brotherhood, yet he dared to sue Second Master Lian and completely offended Second Master Lian.

The eldest wife didn't like him either.

Under such circumstances, who would dare to get close to him?They were all afraid that if they showed any kindness to Jia Cong, they would be dragged down by him.

"Third Master Cong, Second Master Lian told you to come over, come with me."

Suddenly a woman came over and said rudely to her.

Jia Cong shivered suddenly, although he didn't know what Jia Lian told him to do, but instinctively made him feel scared.

"move!"

Hearing the mother-in-law's impatient voice, Jia Cong didn't dare to resist, stood up silently, and lowered his head.

The mother-in-law didn't talk to him too much, and led him to Mrs. Xing's room.

After Yang gave Jia Cong to Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Xing let him live in a compartment in her house to show his closeness.

At this time, in Jia Cong's room, there were only three people.

Jia Lian, Mrs. Xing, and Jia Lian's maid Aqi.

After bringing Jia Cong, the mother-in-law saluted and then withdrew.

When Jia Cong saw such a posture, he was even more uneasy, and he couldn't help jumping up and down.

Forcibly resisting, she stepped forward to pay a visit: "I have seen my wife, I have seen my second brother Lian..."

Mrs. Xing glanced at him, she couldn't hide the disgust in her eyes, how could she be so unlucky to have such a hot potato?
Therefore, Jia Cong's greetings were ignored.

Seeing this, Jia Cong immediately shed tears of grievance on his small face...

　The previous article had little interaction with Jinchai and others. First, Daiyu and the others were too young, and second, because the general environment was not suitable, Jia Amnesty had been hanging there all the time.It is inappropriate to forcefully describe a joyful and lively occasion.When the great joyous event of concubine concubine Yuanchun comes out, Jia Amnesty's influence is completely offset, and then the Yuanzi opera is written, it will be much more logical. ~
